I shop at TJs several times a week, usually. I buy many of the foods already mentioned. They are great for basics - milk, eggs, cheese, cold cuts. They can’t be beat for nuts and dried fruit. Some things they have that I don’t think have been mentioned here are frozen cubes of cilantro (great for adding to enchiladas), frozen jumbo wild scallops, all kinds of frozen shrimp, dark chocolate. They have frozen cannolis that the kids love. Their brown rice pasta is great.

Many of our favorite foods have been discontinued - organic foursome (frozen veg), pumpkin ice cream. They used to have pomegranate molasses and I am still mourning it.

They have 100% white whole wheat flour, great for baking. The kids don’t even notice it in baked goods.

Unfortunately, ours does not carry wine - state law. They do carry beer now, many varieties.
